Supervisor194It’s actually quite nice, conversations seem like you can get heard and people are generous with upvotes. It’s like Reddit was in 2010, but it’s been that way for a couple years (for me) now. I hope it continues.
Depemds on what instance and what opinion you are towing, still. Though it is still a far cry better than Reddit.
wonderingwandererIt’s easier to choose and curate for oneself. Blocking comms actually works (even if blocking instances or users doesn’t). I don’t see any tankie comms anymore, even if I still have to argue with .ml users in comments on other threads.
And even though mods can ban from communities or instances, no automated admin bots can give you a site-wide ban over petty reasons. I can say I hate nazis without getting my entire IP banned for “hate speech”…
You can still get your account nuked by butthurt admins.
Though again, still far better than Reddit.
Really? How? I thought instances had the highest level of control? Or are admins a per-instance thing?
The admins literally administer the instances. Even if the API didn’t allow it, they could just directly delete your user record from the DB.
Right, exactly, that’s my point. None of them can ban you from the fediverse, just their instance.
